Verdict

Akatara is the only one here with a decent level of form on quicker going and has proved a solid if unspectacular performer in maiden hurdles. She'll get the trip too but it may be worth going along with PRIORS GOLD now that he gets the chance to operate on better ground. Gordon Elliott's charge has run well enough on soft and heavy to date over timber but showed enough on two attempts on good ground when with Marcus Tregoning on the level to suggest he could improve considerably under these conditions. Similar comments apply to Speed Steed, but Longliner and Super Sonic Boom haven't reproduced their Flat form over obstacles though it's too early to write them off yet.
